• 4 pillars of measurement economy:
  • Government Regulation - there's a new carbon tax being introduced on certain goods imported into the EU, the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism, which will affect corporate operating expenses. Expected to be $8B by 2030. We expect to see this rolled out in other countries in the future.
  • Sustainable Finance - offering 5-10% preferred rates to companies that reduce their carbon footprint, affecting Cost of Capital. Estimate is $22 Trillion to be injected into the green finance market by 2031.
  • Demand for Low Carbon Product & Services - affecting pricing premiums, market share, and creating new product categories
  • Financial Marketplace - $130 Trillion committed by UN Glasgow Investment Alliance to corporations committed to achieving net-zero carbon.
• Measurement Economy & Corporate Strategy

  • Emerging market forces are creating the new Measurement Economy, providing the opportunity to lower operating expenses, increase market share, lower cost of capital and increase market valuation by lowering carbon emissions.

    Corporations that survive and thrive will be those that learn to turn climate data from a liability into an asset.
• Open Source Value Proposition
  • The SIG is trying to create an efficient market.
    • This requires accessible data, low cost data, trusted data.
  • Right now the market has an inefficient marketplace:
    • Low data access - data is siloed, held by corporations, not accessible outside of companies
    • High data cost: each corporate report has to be reviewed and analyzed separately
    • Low data trust: fragmented standards, low data trust, no visibility into data history/provenance
  • There's currently a lack of interoperability of climate data
    • Jeff Pribich: when he worked at BP, data collection was a major challenge
  • Data needs to be collected by each individual company
  • The SIG is trying to create:
    • High data access, using DLT, in a shared, interoperable layer of climate data
    • Low data cost: Lower costs by digitizing and automating the monitoring, reporting and verification (MRV) process, creating an interoperable layer that can create reports at the company, factory or product level
    • Improved data trust - Transparency into data provenance: measurement, reporting, verification, Immutable data provides a permanent record. AI identifies anomalies, opportunities.
• Scope 3 Emissions Reporting Prototype
  • Net Emissions Token Network - Open source tool to calculate emissions profiles at company, factory or product level. Profiles are calculated using emissions debt and credit tokens.
  • Emissions Data Channel - OS tool to aggregate and verify emissions data
  • Secure Identifyer Solutions - OS tool for identity and credential management, for net emissions token network, emissions data channel solutions.
